Default Which Euro favorite is likely to fail

Conduit and Golidkova come to mind. Mastercraftsman also.

Mastercraftman is a complete no play for me, Brockguy is completely against him and told me to watch his races and I did, and he is completely right in his opinion.

That being said, I have no idea where to go in this race, I might everyone but Mastercraftsman, Pyro, and Bullsbay

RVW may be the one. Saw an article today on the BC site that O'Brien says that he's got a sore hoof and is day-to-day.

RR was my #1 in that race and was all over the cold DD with Invasor in the classic. couldn't believe it paid over $200.

I'm not using any Euro in the 3rd and 4th spots of my tickets. They tend to either run very well or totally bomb.

Goldikova bombs in my book. I'm laying off of her.

Coming off a loss at 2-5 odds and now drawing an outside post in the Mile makes Goldikova extremely vulnerable. I also think Conduit is a go-against in the Turf. I think the filly is the one to beat in the Turf.

Filly's my #1 in the turf and bonus with Dettori.

Rip is most likely because the surface questions and foot issues. I'm convinced that Goldlikova is going to fire, but the post and deep field reduce her chances. I can see a similar race to Rock of Gibraltar when he was clearly the best but couldn't get through.

How many times have you heard a trainer say this or that a horse had a problem going into a big race and the horse end up winning. Im not falling for it this time. If he gets beat it wont be because of the hoof
